Pinion Gear Built for Racing Durability

The Tamiya 50518 0.8 Module Steel 18T Pinion Gear delivers solid, consistent power transfer for RC engines and is made to resist wear from frequent track use. Its 18-tooth profile and 0.8 module make it a straightforward steel upgrade for many hobby setups.

Benefits of Steel Gearing

Picking a steel pinion like the Tamiya 50518 reduces gear wear compared to softer materials and helps maintain drivetrain performance under load. That wear resistance is especially useful for competitive drivers and anyone who runs their models regularly.

Product Highlights

  • Material: Steel construction for improved wear resistance
  • Tooth Count: 18 teeth to balance top speed and torque
  • Module: 0.8 module for common engine gearboxes
  • Usage: Suited to upgrades, race prep, and routine maintenance
The pinion can be used with electric motors that accept a 0.8 module gear, but always check that the motor shaft and set screw arrangement match before fitting.
Use a suitable hex driver or wrench to secure the pinion to the motor or engine shaft, then verify gear mesh and tighten evenly for a secure fit.
Inspect the teeth regularly, keep the mesh correct, and clean grit away after dusty sessions; steel tolerates wear well but benefit from routine checks.
